Jokes apart, such "normal" environments are rare today.

It can ack once per window at high load. I have seen the same behaviour
of solaris. freebsd-4.x surely does not ack each second mss
(it is from source code), which is probably bug (at least, it stops
to ack at all as soon as MSG_WAITALL is used. 8))
Acking each second mss is required to do slow start more or less
fastly. As soon as window is full, they are useless, so that win2000
is fully right and, in fact, optimal.
